If any one has taken the river route to
Buda-Pesth under the delusion that he is
to SEQ fine scenery he Is quickly disabused.
The finest scenery of the Danube is above
Vienna, between the capital and Linz,
and also farther up, as far as Passau.
Along this part Of its course there is q
constant succession OF villages with cas-
ties, hills crowned with ruins, abbeys in
picturesque localities and landscapes of
great beauty and variety. 1t is in this
respect one of the most noted parts of
Austria, which has a greater variety Of
landscape beauty than any other country
of Europe.
Below Buda-Pesth the views are fine
and bold. The shores are more abrupt
and there are splendid reaches of the river,
which receives large tributaries and be-
comes more majestic. For some distance
below Vienna the levees are numerous
though not continuous. The land near
the banks is low and the hills beyond them
the gentlest u~ndulations. The towns that
are passed from time to time do little to
enhance the interest as respects their APP
p%earance, though all of them had their
little affairs with the Turks 800 or 400
years ago. In fact, every square milf of
ground along either bank, soon after leav-
ing Vienna, is historic.-Budn -Pesth Cor.
San Francisco Chronicle.

In one of the better class of tenement
houses Il woman, u polisher in n jewelry
mandatory, said the other day:
I'm wiling to work hard, l don't
care how hard; but it's awful to me to
SEQ my little boy and the way he goes on.
He's u cash boy at DIS, and they
don't pay by tho week, they pay by
checks, SO every cash boy is on the keen
jump after a call. They're so worried
and anxious and afraid they won't get
enough, and Johnny cries and says: oh,
mamma, | do try, but there's one boy
that always gets ahead Of me- 1 think
it's an awful system ven if it does make
them smart
An awful system, yet in its ranks
march more and more thousands every
year. 1t would seem as if every force in
modern civilization bent toward this one
end of money getting, and the child Of
days and the old man of years alike
shared the passion and ran the same mad
race. 1t is the passion itself that has out
grown all bounds and that faces us to-
day-tno modern Medusa, on which he
who looks has no moro heart of flesh and
blood but forever heart of stone, insensi-
bio to any sorrow, unmoved by any cry
OF child or woman.-Helen Campbell in
New York Tribune.

6TANzAS.

l watched thee when tho foe wns at our side,
Ready to strike at him-or thee or me
Were safely hopeless-ready to divide
Aught with ono loved save love and liberty.
/ watched thee in the breakers, when the rock
Received our prov, when all was storm and
fear,
And bade thee cling to me through every shock;
This arm would be thy bark, or breast thy bier.
/ watched thee when the fever glazed thine eyes,
. Yielding my couch, and stretched me on the
ground
When overworp with watching. ne'er to rise
From thence II thou IN early grave hadst found.
The earthquake came and rocked the quivering
wall,
And men and nature reeled as IL with wine.
Whom did l seek around the lettering hall.
For thee. Whose safety first provide for, Thine.
And when convulsive throes denied my breath
The faintest utterance to my fading thought.
To thee-to thee-e'en in the gasp of death
Ny spirit turned. oh, oftener than 1t ought.
Thus much and more; md yet thou lov'st me not,
And never wiz Love dwells not In our will.
Nor can l blanc thee. though It be my lot
To strongly, wrongly. vainly love thee still.

Every one knows that the sea has larger
animals than can be found on land; but
with tho enormous sequoias of California
in mind, many may be surprised to learn
of vegetable growths in the ocean vastly
exceeding in length, though not in bulk,
these Giants Of the forest. Recently the
ship Clever, commanded by Capt. John
Stone, arrived at Montevideo with n por-
ton of a seaweed which had been picked
up in the Atlantic near the equator. The
sailors perceived an object floating on the
surface some distance from the ship. and,
manning n boat, they rowed to it, and
asccrtaincd that it was an alga of enor-
size. On measuring It, it was
found to have n length upward of 1900
feet. Swiss Cross.

SPRING is almost here. Its smiles al
ready greet us, like the occasional glimpses
of heaven that we get now and then on
this earth. The sun is becoming brighter
and warmer every day. The trees and
the prairies are giving signs Of returning
verdure. The birds are beginning to sing
and the sky is laboring harder to keep free
from dark clouds. All nature is In labor
and will soon produce a paradise at our
very doors. Indeed, the spring s at
hand. We see it in the sun, we hear it in
the sounds of the air; we feel it in our
very bones and hearts. 1t is coming
surely, and it will revive trade, boautify
the world and make us all happy.

1T MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

Wyoming would be in much better
condition to-day if the present admins
tration of the interior department had
been in charge during the past five years"
said ono of our leading stockmen to the
writer yesterday. we would have had
to-day at least ten thousand more people
in this territory and consequently greater
prosp.ri and a larger tax roll" Such
sentiments as these are gradually begin
ming to prevail among our thinking men
men who have the welfare of all the people
at heart, and who believe that the inter-
ests of the many are paramount to the in
terests of the few.
AT the time President Cleveland's ad-
ministration took charge of the general
land Office, the veteran legislator and
diplomatist, f. b. Washburne, said that
in his opinion there was no department
of the government which had been 80 no.
toriously corrupt as the land office. This
statement, coming from a life long Re-
publican, the special friend ofGen. Grant,
was a sad commentary on the Republican
misrulc of twenty five years, which
eliminated in the notorious NAL
administration of Secretary Teller.
Entering the government service in this
department, it became the duty OF Secre-
tary Lamar to upset many of the schemes
of the element which had long been filch-
ing the peoples broad acres under loosely
drawn regulations. Because some of the
new rulings bore heavily upon innocent
parties, the cry was set up that the new
Democratic administration was attacking
the poor settler, the widow and the or
phan OF the soldier homesteader and the
prosperi Y of the country In general.
Unhappily for the reputation of the party
press, all that is necessary to secure cur
rency for such allegations against a polit-
ical opponent is to utter them. The ad-
ministration vas Immediately denounced
by thousands who took 10 pains to inform
themselves of the nature OF the fight it
had on hand. Unmoved, however, by
these misrepresentation, the administra
ton, knowing the source of these attacks,
kept on reforming the old abuses, and to-
day the honesty of Its purpose and the
great value of its accomplishments in the
direction of the publication of this branch
of the public service are universally recog-
nized.
